She's got Grit
Jun 10, 2019
First story
And they said, “Sorry”
She went for a pee
There was a leak
But she thought it was just a wee
She went back to sleep in a swift
Then, she felt a drift
Yet, she thought it was just a shift
She carried on as normal
Though in deep thoughts
Wondering what's about to happen
Then Dr. Google played the trick
The clock started to tick
While she drove to work
She pondered about the what ifs
Her mind was in a wonder
She was in a ponder
If history was going to repeat itself
Yet, she drove
Because life has to continue
No matter what
She went for a pee again
There she was in disbelief
‘Brown Hot chocolate found’!!
Which is not supposed to happen
Not During this period, anyway
As if it was all ok
SHE walked out, over and round the building
Making sure no one was alarmed.
Upon Examination
They looked at each other
Without altering a word
But she knew the meaning of that look
She knew what they were going to say
When she walked over
All she said was
“Sorry".
With eyes closed,
Breath held, memory lane revisited
12 years back, same words
“Sorry”
Explanations given
Decisions made
Another pee she went
1, 2, 3 steps
There, right there in the middle of the room
It all happened
Heaven broke loose
She swiftly turned around in panic
She thought someone just poured a bucket of water down her
Behold!
In amazement and shock
Her precious, jealously protected bucket of water had just leaked down her legs
She cried, she wept
On her knees, she begged Him above to reverse the situation
As you see, it was way too late
The deed was already done
Her life was never going to be the same again
Initially, she thought she couldn't live after this
But, look, she lives
She smiles though through tears
With a broken heart
However, not broken
Why?
Because “She’s got Grit".
